England Women will host the US Women's national team at Wembley Stadium in an international friendly on Friday night.
England recently won the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 in July while the USA are the reigning World Champions, so the game should make for an exciting clash.
England continued their winning ways in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers last month and recorded 2-0 and 10-0 wins over Austria and Luxembourg respectively. They will be looking to make the most of their home advantage against the current No 1 ranked team in the FIFA Women's Ranking.
USA have not played a competitive game since their 1-0 win over Canada in the CONCACAFAF Women's Championship final in July, though they did play a couple of friendlies in September. They defeated Nigeria 4-0 and 2-1 in a set of two friendlies.
Alex Morgan's tea-sipping celebration in the USA's 2-1 win over England in the 2019 FIFA World Cup semi-finals caused a stir among English players and fans and they will be hoping for redemption here.
